[QUOTE="quigley257, post: 3020196, member: 84442"] Since you have all the needed equipment for the 300WM just rebarrel it with a faster twist barrel throated for the long bullets. I built a 30" 8 twist bull barrel in 300PRC when it first came out. It is nothing short of amazing. I am launching the 250gr Hornady A-Tips at 2800FPS using RL26 in Lapua brass. Recoil in this rig is gentle with an all up weight of 20# and an APA FB3 brake. If I remember my numbers right, it's supersonic to 1800 yards and requires just under 7 MRADS to get out to 1000 yards. Properly set up, the WM should do nearly as well and you already have the equipment to load for it. [/QUOTE]
